Description:"If you call yourself a serious reader but still haven't discovered Lewis Nordan, shame on you." -"The Seattle Times"Lewis Nordan's cult following began in 1991 when Algonquin published his first novel, "Music of the Swamp. "His second novel, "Wolf Whistle," was inspired by one of the nation's most volatile and notorious racial incidents. Nordan was fifteen years old at the time, and living in Mississippi, just down the road from where young Emmet Till was murdered for daring to whistle at a white woman. "Wolf Whistle" was hailed by Randall Kenan in "The Nation" as "an immense and wall-shattering display of talent." It was Nordan's most acclaimed work and winner of the Southern Book Award. He published four more books with Algonquin, including "Lightning Song," "The Sharpshooter Blues," "Sugar Among the Freaks, " and a memoir, "Boy with Loaded Gun."
